At age 73, I fell while running across the street - causing a massive rotator cuff tear to my right shoulder in August 2016. I had surgery in September 2016. Dr. DiFelice was one of three orthopedic surgeons that I consulted regarding the repair to my shoulder. He, and Rob O'Brien, were clear and concise about how the surgery would be performed and realistic about the recovery and rehab, gaining my full confidence.
My left shoulder - from old injuries and overuse during recovery from surgery on my right shoulder - suffered a full thickness tear to the supraspinatus tendon. Surgery for that repair was in April 2017.
I had physical therapy 3 times a week for 12 months! The recovery was long, but I now have full range of motion and full use of both my shoulders/arms and would do it again (hope not!) if necessary. I can fold king size sheets again! One of the pictures I included shows me changing the batteries in a smoke detector high up in my bedroom! I am BACK IN THE GAME of life!! Thanks to Dr. DiFelice and Rob.
